Well settled is the rule
that alibi is an inherently weak defense which
cannot prevail over the positive identification of the accused by the victim.
Moreover, in order for the defense of alibi to prosper, it is not
enough to prove that the petitioner was somewhere else when the offense was
committed, but it must likewise be demonstrated that he was so far away that it
was not possible for him to have been physically present at the place of the
crime or its immediate vicinity at the time of its commission.
